thrown aside for tho time being, ana the
Grand affairs were decorated in magnificent
style. The hour Of the grand poutihcal
mass was set for 11:30, but long before that
time the chapel was crowded. Inc SWISS
Guards appeared in their handsome UNI
forms, and the Ambassadors ana church az
nitaries occupied the front pe"s. Inc

sanctuary was magnificent. freceoed oy

the procession passed through into the sane
tuary Towards the last OF the Drllllanu
retinue appeared the white'rooed hguFe
of the Pope, borne on the sedla. AS he
entered the sanctuary the Pope bowed MS
head. and slowly raising his hand, made the

The GAZETTE is now the. oldest o,D.,

The GAZETTE is now the. oldest paper q.
the State, and with few exceptions the oa.
est in the country, and its usefulness r..
been demonstrated and appreciated duri,,
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS ofits existspc. =
its columns has always been found mi,,..
of passing events, and the careful cbro,.
cling OF the history of what is going or iDn
world has ever been its aim. It is avo..
welcomed in the household, while in =.
counting room and workshop it has Dscor,.
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for m
tanning nows than any paper outside of ii.
national capital. Situated as it is SO chs.
to the great centre of news, it enjoys dali,
the benefit of the Associated Pres, d..
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in n.
evening what has transpired that day il
every portion Of our own domain as well ..
from every part of the habitable elob.
Consequently it is an every day occurrenc.
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning ps.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE great desideratum with mer.
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occur:
in and near the city, and this feature will
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of the State, is pub
lished regularly, and all events OF interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com.
monwealth are TO be found in the column.
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzETTE's circulation is steadily in
creasing, especially among people who con.
suit its advertising columns before purchas.
ing. That this is self-evident NAV be infer.
red from the fact that large country edi
tion-nearly as large as the daiy--s sent
all over this section OF country three tines
a week, and ia read by thousands, most OF
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of adj.
vertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore ap-
parent.
